Love After One-night Stand with CEO

Rosa looked at him, and tears started swelling in her eyes.

This side of him was too gentle.

Her heart fluttered.

For a moment, she didn't know what to say.

He gazed into her eyes and said, "I've never waited for anyone my whole life. And yet, I'm willing to wait my whole life for you. I've never cared about anyone before, but I care about you more than anyone! Why can't you see?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he gave out a helpless laugh.

"Look at me, I'm not that young anymore and yet still so emotional. How annoying."

Hearing his words, Rosa who was on the verge of tears felt a lot better.

He smiled and stared at her affectionately, looking into the depths of her eyes.

She returned his gaze as tears welled up in her eyes. Then, she said with a smile, "Uncle... I'm afraid of cold. Whether it's the weather or a person's heart."

She was really timid.

Especially when it came to her feelings, she would strike back like a hedgehog, out of habit.

Her spines would trigger to protect herself, like a defence mechanism.

Henry gently tucked her hair behind her ear and smiled. "I have a fiery heart. I won't treat you coldly!"

Rosa was silent. Her heart was in a mess.

"Uh..." Suddenly, the man frowned deeply. Then, he started to lose the strength in his grip.

Immediately, Rosa could feel his weight on her.

"Uncle, what's wrong?" Rosa panicked and quickly tried to support his weight.

Henry barely hold himself up, but the moment he looked up once again, there seemed to be a fire burning in his eyes.

Beads of sweat started to form on his forehead.

However, it was late autumn, so he shouldn't be sweating this much!

"Uncle..." Rosa suddenly felt a little scared.

The man chuckled and looked very helpless. "I think I've been drugged..."

He could sense the sudden changes in his body.

Being in the business world for so many years, this was the second time he had been drugged by someone.

The first time he had been drugged was his first time with her.

That was why he was so reckless!

Of course, he was annoyed that he had been tricked that time.

It was normal for him to be so furious that time.

"Should we go to the hospital?" Rosa was anxious. When she touched his body, she could feel him burning.

She was afraid of this kind of situation.

She feared that the same would happen to him, just like how Cecil went unconscious.

Because of this, she couldn't stop trembling.

"Don't be afraid!" He pressed on her shoulder to calm her down.

"What on earth is it?" Rosa was about to break down.

The man leaned over and whispered something in her ear. Then he panted as he looked at her with red eyes.

Rosa was stunned.

How could it be...

The man lifted her silky long hair with his fingers and breathed heavily. He leaned close to her ear and said in a low voice, pleading, "Help me!"

Rosa was stunned. She could feel that he was burning.

She was afraid, but she was also worried and distressed.

He didn't urge her. Instead, he tried to calm his breathing as he waited for her answer.

After thinking for a few seconds, Rosa put her arms around his neck and kissed him.

The man froze in surprise, unable to react.

This was the first time she took the initiative to kiss him.

In an instant, he was overwhelmed with shock and indescribable happiness.

"Lower... lower your voice, Cecil... Cecil is right next door..."

The next morning...

It had been a long night. By the time she woke up was when Cecil knocked on her door.

"Sister, are you still not up yet?" Cecil asked at the door.

Rosa was shocked and her eyes flung open.

The next second, she felt a warm body clinging onto her.

Rosa froze and almost screamed.

"Sister..."

Hearing no reply, Cecil called out once again.

Rosa quickly came to her senses and stammered nervously.

"Oh... I... I've overslept. I'll... get up right away. You can go back to your room for now. I'll be right there!"

"Okay." She then heard Cecil pushing his wheelchair away.

Just as Rosa was about to let out a sigh of relief, she suddenly felt a pair of warm hands.

He whispered in her ear in a hoarse voice, "Good morning, babe!"

Rosa was stunned. "Babe..."

"You're not allowed to run away anymore, okay?" He wrapped his arms around her waist and buried his face into the nape of her neck. Rosa lowered her eyes, feeling conflicted.

The man seemed to have sensed it. He reached out and gently smoothed out the wrinkles on her forehead.

"As long as I'm here, you don't have to be afraid. You just need to be yourself. I'll take care of everything else for you!"

Rosa thought about it for a few seconds.

Then, she turned around and looked at him.

G

His eyes were very dark and deep. She looked at her own reflection in her eyes.

For a moment, she was lost in his eyes.

"What are you looking at?" A smile appeared on the man's lips.

Rosa was a little embarrassed and shifted her gaze immediately.

NOW PLAY YOUR

FAVOURITE GAMES ON

However, the man grabbed her chin and said, "Can you give us a chance?"

"What if... we're not suitable for each other..."

"Then I'll do whatever you want me to. I won't have any complaints!"

As long as she tried accepting him, he would have a way to win over her heart.

After thinking for a while, Rosa looked up at him and said in a serious tone, "I can try, but you have to promise me one thing."

"Go ahead!"

"Even if we are dating, I don't want us to spend money on each other. I won't move to your apartment at Silver Beach. I don't want others to talk about us, and I don't want to make it difficult for Cecil!" Right now, she only had one family member.

She didn't care what others say about her.

But she would never allow others to talk down about her younger brother.

"But the environment and facilities at the apartment in Silver Beach are all the best for Cecil!"

"I know, but for Cecil, as long as I'm with him, any place is the best place!" She smiled softly, which was incredibly dazzling.

The man was stunned for a moment, and then a gentle smile appeared on his face.

She was right. Wherever she goes, she would brighten up the place.

"Alright, I promise!"

"Uh... Also, during our trial period, if I think we're unsuitable for each other, I have the right to stop!"

"Alright!" He chuckled again.

He wouldn't give her the chance to say so anyway.

"Aren't you answering a little too fast?"

"As long as you agree, I'm willing to do anything!"

He wore a silly grin on his face.

Rosa frowned and pouted. "You didn't even think about it. You answered too fast!"

He leaned forward and kissed her lips.

"Dummy, you never noticed how much I care about you. So, as long as you are willing to stay with me, everything is not a problem!"

Rosa blushed and glared at him shyly.

This man was so good at flirting.

"Why are you glaring at me? A kiss is not enough? Then I'll give you a deeper kiss!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the man leaned towards her and wanted to give her a French kiss.

But a pair of small hands blocked him from doing so.

"I haven't finished talking..."

"What else is there?"

"We shouldn't show our affection in public..."

The man's eyes suddenly became cold, and his tone was a little unhappy. "What's wrong? Am I an embarrassment to you?"

"No!" Rosa bit her lip and explained, "You are engaged to Miss Baker right now. What do you think people would think about us?"

She frowned deeply.

Previously, she told Grace not to be a mistress.

But what was she doing now?

Even if he said that he had nothing to do with Miss Baker, and that all of it was just for business...

But no matter what, right now she was a mistress!

The more she thought about it, the more unhappy she became.

She lowered her head and placed her hands on his chest. He could only see the top of her head.

What made him the man he was today was not just his power and ability.

It was also because of his wit.

"Don't worry. I won't let the public talk down about you. Outsiders don't have the right to talk about you!"

Rosa looked up at him and asked, "What do you mean?"

"You don't need to know. You just need to remember that you are not a mistress, and you are my girl. The only one!" He chuckled and kissed her on the lips. "Is that all?".

Rosa thought for a while and muttered, "I'll add on later!"

He chuckled and said, "Okay! Then can you call me Henry?"

Upon hearing this, Rosa looked at him in shock. She opened her mouth but was unable to call his name.

Instead, her face turned pink completely.

"Forget it, just call me uncle!" He chuckled and said in her ear, "I will love you like a niece!"

Rosa immediately pushed him away and pouted. "I... don't want that, you are so fierce to Miranda!"

"She's different. She's my niece by blood, and you're my 'special' niece. I'll treat you differently!"

Rosa blushed and didn't want to talk to him.

The more he spoke, the more frivolous he became.

"Alright, I'll go prepare breakfast for Cecil. You can take the opportunity to sneak out later!" As she said this, she sat up.

Henry frowned and said in a displeased voice, "Sneak out? What am I, a thief?"

Rosa was shocked and immediately covered his lips with her tender hands.

"Cecil is here..."

His eyes curved as he laughed, which was very attractive.

He kissed her palm and gently put her hand down.

"Let me talk to him! He'll find out sooner or later!"

Rosa shook her head and begged, "No, uncle... I want to tell him later on, don't agitate him!"☐☐☐
